The rbit of 1936 Published hy the 'senior class of Classen Highschool, Oklahoma City Foreword Q WITH the aim in mind of commemorating the joys, hopes, and aspirations of this graduating class, the ,36 Orbit presents a graphic account of a year at Classen. Q IT is our sincere desire that every graduate will derive a lasting pleasure and satisfaction from the memo- ries imbued in these pages. Q THE year of 1936 has left a colorful wake behind the Classen Comet. Athletics, Forensics, and Dramatics each has its own spot on the Orbit to flare briefly for a while and then dim as other events outshine its importance. Q AS sparks fly from the tail of the even-progress- ing Comet, so do little incidents of smiles and tears, pathos and humor, romance and friendship, cling to our thoughts in after years. Realizing this, our magazine at- tempts to portray not only the cultural benefits reaped from three years in this institution of secondary educa- tion, but also the more intangible side of our highschool careersg the things that can't be written about for lack of words, but can perhaps be caught in the fleeting snap of the camera. Q BUT really, you know, if you remember your stars, what we call the tail of a comet really points forward and precedes the main body in its travels through space. SO in Our Comet, we have told you what we could of the characters, the dispositions, the abilities, the nature their future careers, and give you an idea of what you may expect Of us. Q THE year 1936 has marked a successful climax for some five-hundred students at Classen. For many it is a finality-and we wish them the greatest success-in the fields they have chosen for their lives' work-for others is still an anti-climax, college, with still a greater road to travel-our wishes for final success are also with them. Q IT is with a sense of pride that we of the year book staff offer this journal for your approval. We have tried to conquer the commonplace in year book style and give you a truly informal slant on life at Classen High. Q THIS page poses as a Foreword. it really is a Back- word, for it is the last thing an Annual Editor ever writes, after all the experience and hard work is over and she has made her resolve that never in a thousand years would she edit another-and then two years later will be pulling strings to get on her college annual. Q MAYBE some of yoh will like it. Some of you certainly will not. Any number of you Could have got- ten out a darned sight better book myselff, If so, why didn't you help? Q But a lot of you did. This book is not the brain child of the editor alone or her staff, but of a lot of people who did help, with ideas and actual work. Q THIS is Our Book. Nancy Marsh, and the ideals of our Seniors as sparks that fly ahead of Editor. Contents FOREWORIJ CLASSEN ATHLETICS Nancy Marsh ,.,,., ....,.,..
